If the beam wasn't out of line with the old halogen lamps, it might be that the led lamps aren't centered in the reflector properly?Richard

No! - lower the dipped beam It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

hi, so is that the answer, dipped is to high. makes sense, so just adjust the unit with a 6mm allen key ?

Yes, best done facing a wall or garage doors with lamps on then road test. It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
